It's ice-cream o'clock. If you've been craving the frozen treats these days, we've got on the scoop on one of Edmonton's trendiest dessert parlours. Yelo'd Ice Cream Shop promises treats so over-the-top and delicious that you'll probably be hitting it up all summer long. Located on the city's bustling Whyte Avenue, the shop and its unbelievably pretty desserts will offer you an epic escape from those scorching summer days. Editor's Choice: Fans Think Taylor Swift Revealed The Name Of Ryan Reynolds' & Blake Lively's Daughter Yelo'd's treats are inspired by Asian and particularly Filipino cuisine. This means that the dessert flavours will be far more unique than what you're used to in your run-of-the-mill ice-cream shop. Their signature flavour is Ube, which adventurous eaters would know is essentially purple yams. Yelo'd told Narcity that they go through 100 pounds of yams on a weekly basis to produce this popular ice-cream. Other interesting treats that caught our eye include black sesame ice cream with salted duck egg, soy sauce ice cream with caramelized chow mein, Ube-cheesecake combo ice-cream, and a matcha raspberry ice-cream flavour. The offerings might be unfamiliar but you'll still be able to satisfy your sweet tooth. The black sesame flavour gives off a roasted nutty sensation, much like peanut butter, whereas the soy sauce flavour will remind you of brown sugar and salted caramel.

If that doesn't sound simply divine, your taste buds must be broken. The eatery's also come out with a treat called a Tustado, a purple bun that is toasted with ice-cream in the middle.
